London-based art-pop trio The Deadmans have officially arrived with the release of their debut single 'Nice Kid', a bold, groove-heavy alt-pop track filled with lo-fi swagger and lyrical bite.
Written and recorded across five cities, the track is a slow-burn goodbye to self-erasure, transforming discomfort into empowerment. Produced by Jake Black (Stereo Honey, Sletta) and mastered by Ruairi O’Flaherty (Billie Eilish, Lana Del Rey), it pairs raw instrumentation with poetic urgency.
The accompanying self-directed video, shot in lyricist LaurenSage Browning’s Kansas hometown on VHS, follows a woman desperate to escape a sugar-coated social nightmare. It’s both nostalgic and subversive; equal parts home video and fever dream.
With 'Nice Kid', The Deadmans throw open the doors to a cinematic world where music, performance, and narrative collide, introducing themselves as a band with vision, bite, and something to say.
